Title: Eastern Washington Whitetail Pedestal mount (Charlies Taxidermy)
Post by: bucklucky on May 19, 2011, 07:56:34 AM: I finally got some finished pictures taken of this pedestal mount I did. It is tougher to get good pictures when its so dang sunny out, I had to get up at 5:30 this morning to take the pics. Anyway, this is one of my most favorite mounts I have done to date . I hope to get more people wanting stuff like this done as it is something that is fun to do and is different from the everyday semi sneak shoulder mount that everyone gets Anyway, enjoy the pictures.

Post by: RaffleMule on May 19, 2011, 09:18:48 AM: Charlie, this mount is absolutely perfect.

I took these pictures to the taxi I used but we couldn't find a pedestal mount in a similar pose large enough for the cape I had. I think we found one that is close but there will still be some adjustments because 7 7/8 and 23' was the largest one we could find.

I hope it turns out like yours.

Cant wait to see how it turns out!

Im going to do a pedestal like this one on a big mulie for display but I will have to modify a tru-fit wall pedestal form to get there. Thats about the closest thing I can find to modify.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Post by: agchawk on May 19, 2011, 07:08:13 PM: I know that a lot of members have already said it and I myself have said it many time but your work is absolutely the best I've ever had the pleasure of viewing. I look at the various animals you have finished and posted on here and think "There is no way I'd be able to tell that that's a mount if shown side by side with a pic of a living animal."

Well done Charlie! Your work never ceases to amaze me.
